Guest Post: Six ingredients for a good weekend

1. Go for a bike ride. Unless it's snowing wherever you are, in which case you're excused.
2. Watch Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. One of the funniest and most underrated movies of all time.
3. Make a gin cocktail. Gin is for grown-ups--so pass on those froofy drinks with the umbrellas.
4. Eat quality Camembert. Need I say more?
5. Drive a vintage car. Preferably slowly and through the countryside.
6. Dance to ABBA. You know you love them! Don't deny it.

Hi Jan--why would an old car have a particularly large carbon footprint? Carbon dioxide emissions are directly and linearly related to fuel consumption. While an old car might not meet emissions checks (for NOX, CO, particulates, etc.), it likely emits no more carbon dioxide that the car you drive every day.

I feel compelled to tell you that my family and I have been having an on-going conversation about gin. I am the only one in my family who likes it. So your post about making a gin cocktail was quite timely!

OMG! I love this post! These are my ingredients for a qualityweekend too- esp. the delicious Hendricks gin and Camembert! I might switch out Dirty Rotten Scoundrels(although I love) for the original Sabrina - it always makes my day!xoLJhttp://jonesyloves.blogspot.com/

interesting blog! by the way, i would not discourage from biking in the snow. it may be a little slippy, but there's something super charming about it. we do it all the time here in copenhagen - http://www.copenhagencyclechic.com/search/label/snow - some photographic evidence from another blog i like. :)
